There's really not much I can say about your mother. She was always very kind to me and my family when I was growing up. I have fond memories of her picking us up from fencing class, always with a couple of blue powerades to keep us well hydrated. But in the end, it wasn't just your mother. Your whole family made me feel like part of their own family. Inviting me to dinner and house events, and letting me know I was always welcome there. My own mother insists that the reason you guys ended up living in Rohrmoser is because she talked to your mother about good real estate in Costa Rica. All this aside, if there's one thing I have to thank your mother and your whole family for is never turning your backs on my family when things got bad. I have no words to show my appreciation for this.
